6-Bromo-2-nitropyridin-3-ol acts as a reagent for the synthesis of oxabicyclooctane-linked novel bacterial topoisomerase inhibitors as broad spectrum antibacterial agents. Also, functions as a reagent for the preparation of α-styrylpyridines via palladium-catalyzed coupling of N-tosylhydrazones with halopyridines, and their antitumor activity.
